Messy Yard Girls Lacrosse Drill

Messy Yard Girls Lacrosse Drill

“Messy Yard Lacrosse” is a fast and dynamic game designed to improve stick skills and ball control in a fun and competitive environment. Players, divided into two teams, must use their lacrosse sticks to pick up and transport balls to the opposite side of the field, preventing them from accumulating in their own “yard.” At the end of the time, the team with the fewest balls on their side wins. This activity promotes speed, teamwork, and decision-making under pressure, while players practice key lacrosse skills.

2 v 2 Circle ground ball drill

In this drill, players split into two teams and compete to control ground balls tossed by the coach into a circle, aiming to complete two consecutive passes before exiting near their team's line to score a point. Emphasis is on strong communication for both teams: attackers coordinate to facilitate quick, effective passes, while defenders focus on rapid marking and strategic doubling to prevent easy exits and scoring.
